Otherwise, the railway companies, chained by ' public regulation and control, must watch their branch lines and - other lines of light traffic disappear under the deadly competi tion of untrammelled and subsidized highway and water carriers- andttbe future of their entire properties in many instances made uncertain.! cannot believe that the United States will much longed tolerate these unfair conditions that ara giTing to Its essential I transportation agency a creeping paralysis which in the end must sadly affect the welfare of our country as a whola. The above is from a penetrating article into the railway problem of this ' country by Paul Shoup, 1 president of the Southern Pacific system, under the title ."Government Rides the Railroads " in September scriDners magazine, it aeserves careful reading by every person concerned with the mainten ance of adequate transportation in this country and nwith preserving the financial structure which, has absorbed the savings of millions of humble citizens either directly or in- A i lv i . i The public may say, let the roads take care, of them selves. They would if they cduia; Dut every turn luey mae they are confronted by some law which Regulates them. They are literally bound hand and foot. Can they, increase rate at will? Not at all, and rarely can they Sdo so even after lengthy hearings and full proof of the inadequacy of rates. Can they lower rates at will? No. Right now the railroads have seen gasoline hauling usurped from them by price-cutting com petition. When they then cut rates to meet it the new rate is suspended. Days of hearings have been held and the truck lines fight to force the roads to remain on an elevated plane of rates, which would mean naturally that the truck lines would get the business. J f . j 1 1 Can the roads reduce expenses at will either by cutting out branch lines or stopping railway service? No, the ragula tory commissions can and; many times do step in and prevent such reductions. Can they cut wages at will? Not at all. A railway labor board dictates what wages they can pay. The situation is rapidly growing serious.! Trunk line rail loads like the New York Central and Pennsylvania have late ly reduced their dividends. Other strong roads but not so rich, like the Rock Island, have discontinued dividends on common stocks. The prices of railroad bonds has sagged to astonishingly low levels with the exception of a few prime securities. This may end in numerous receiverships with fur ther loss to investors. So long as the condition lasts -t means the roads1 will find it impossible to secure the money they constantly require for additions and improvements, for re newal of rolling stock, for proper maintenance of way and structures. .. - -j J ; -i jt Not only does government regulation ride the roads to their breakdown but government commandeers through tax es vast sums fromt the' railway treasuries: The total taxes paid by the roads last year were $348,584,573. The roads are thus called on not only to pay xneir lair snare uj. me.vwsi.wi government but-to help build the highways and dred?e the streams ior tneir compeuiuis w uywdic uvn. o wv says: ' I v ! J , "The waterway and hlghwaya are furnished by the public as roadbeds for carriers competing with the railroads . without ' Investment on the part of these-oarrlers. The national govern ' ment has been indirectly , subsidizing these enterprises through .iin t! in th lmlldlns of hiehrars". The government has not stopped at that; it has actually cone into the boating business on certain inland waterways; B . ...... 1 "A A. X- - i-Z V. a -..A and even omitting i taxes ana interest lis , operatives shown deficit, is Shoup's assertion, t The real danger to the country is this : the ultimate breakdown of our fine and indispensable railway system of transportation; or the financial collapse of (many systems with disaster to many individuals and heavy losses to sav ings banks and insurance companies, the chief holders of railway bonds; or government ownership. Surely the coun try wants no such calamity as either physical or financial breakdown of the railroads or the alternate kf government ownership. TheJ war-time experience cost the country a bil lion dollars, a lesson expensive enough. i I" The roads can survive if they are given room to breathe, and not hamstrung by crippling regulation which miht have '.been justified when the roads ha - a 'monopoly, but not in these days of fierce competition. Pres. Shoup gives the coun try a sharp and needed warning and he points a fair and necessary solution, which is j quite simple j of application: "Equality in opportunity and equality in regulation and that regulation be reasonable; nothing' more'. ; . K ; Will the country respond? Or shall we go straight into government ownership.?. j Trench Mputh And Pyorrhea I 1 4 - . - : By ESTILL, I. BHUNIi, D.M.D. Marion County Dept. of Health Vincent's angina, or . "trench month," as It Is commonly called. has many symptoms of pyorrhea. Both pave sim ilar beginnings and if let go un treated will prove j fatal for the teeth and the surrounding tissues. ; t. , : i ; Vlnienrs an gina. Is & very serious month disease sad has d e s tr n c tlve charcterl3tics . The cause is a specific bacter ium known as "bacillus . f usl- X. K. i. Braak forms." It at tacks any area that may be weak ened by an nncleaa month. , Symptoms Toldj Trench month - apparently is more common during the summer months. Extreme care, should be taken in the use ' of driniing and eating utensils In tbe so-called furnished cottages at the beaches and anto camps. . One should never use-STvCup that Is used by others unknown to you. The onset -Is very rapid. The tissues are very sore to the touch. They become red and swollen. The soreness and swelling may extend to tbe entire mouth and; into the throat. The breath Is- bad. Lack of the'proper diet: has been suggested as a cause of trench month.' The absence of vitamines in the diet weakens the tissue. making them more susceptible to tbe attack of the bacteria. ' Pyorrhea Deecribel i . Pyorrhea is a condition; brought about by an unclean month; Poor dentistry such as bad! ! fitting crowns are contributing factors. Pyorrhea is much more prevalent than trench mouth. It is slower to start and in the early stakes does not cause' pain.- The tissues be come red and swollen and, as this condition advances, pus f pockets form. The gum and bone tissues will eventually be lost unless the disease is checked in the early stages. ' fj : Both trench mouth and pyor rhea respond to treatment.

Gilbralth before the Salem Rotary club at its noon luncheon meeting of Wednesday furnished some high points of encouragement, worthy of more than passing note by ev ery citlsen of Oregon having the welfare of his state at heart. V Mr. ciihralth had returned a few days before from eastern centers, on a selling campaign! for the products of the Miles linen mill and the newly organized I Sa lem linen mill, both of which are tinder his direction as manager. and for the surplus products of fiber and tow of the state flax plant, for which his organization is acting as marketing agent, j V A. part of his m!ssum was the purchasing of sixteen new looms for weaving linen fabrics in the plant of the reorganized Salem company known nsually as "the big mill ' and other necessary machinery to make the operation there . complete and balanced one. It la scarcely necessary to add that he secured the very lat est machinery; to the end that this mill will be the best equip ped of is kind, to the point of capacity, suitable for the lines put out, in this country. Per haps in any country. Just as the Miles mill is the best in i all the world for the work it is de signed to do.

Clemens Horst company yard, the largest in this section, em ploying nearly 2000 pickers, re fused to pick longer at the' rate of 50 cents a 'box, but demanded 75 cents. The strikers were thrust from the yards and picking resum ed at 50 cents. i 1 . 1 More than 150,000 was paid out yesterday by the Product rs Can ning & Packing company to 100 stockholders of the company, as a first payment this season, on the basis of two cents a pound, ac cording to Fred A. Kurtz, j mana ger of the company.? u Daily Thought "I'll say this, that Congressman Hawley is a very industrious, and efficient man and if he went aft er something in congress he'd get his share and more. . Mrs. Eugene EckerJen, 8r home maker: "I really do not have an opinion on that. It would be difficult to know." v Mrs. W. W.

Martin, route seren, box 02E: "From my viewpoint, it; is too large a matter to say any one man was responsible. Glen nice Spencer, housekeeper: "It looks like Hawley should get the bulk of the credit." nency. This sounds good. It bol sters up the hopes of the pioneers that Oregon's flax and linen in dustries will develop to the ex tent of their most ambitious areams, in due course of tlm. and that it Is la the province of possiouities that growth from now on hiay be not only steady dui snow surprises In the swift ness of development. The continuous successful oper ation oi me two saiem linen mills, now assured, will warrant me building here ' of specialty mill3r plants that will employ more laoor man the primary ones turning out fibers, yarns, twines. tnreaas ana fabrics. ne writer knows of at least three specialty plants that will likely be established here when there is full assurance of ample yarns, ana a certainty that these will be supplied at reasonable cos; on a basis of permanency. ! - ! One or these specialty mills would employ more labor, several times over, than will be at work in both of the present mills when they shall have been brought up to ! the capacity of their present buildings, on a 24 hour basis of operations. m A second one would perhaps before long be still larger in the labor " forces employed. A third one would employ . perhaps as many as the two primary mills. These are only three, Just around the corner. There are atJ least a hundred more In the range of possibilities, for there are more than that many com mercial articles made up of flax products wholly or in part; es pecially when considering those which use hemp., And this valley is as well adapted to the growing of hemp as fine as the best from Italy, and as large in supply of per acre tonnage, as it is to the production of fiber flax. U V Nature has dono its ultimate best in supplying the ideal condi tions here for -both fiber flax and hemp growing and treating and manufacturing, in soil and sun shine and showers.' in 'soft' wa ter, for retting? and in near, sea level conditions for spinning; free-from "electricity" or "stat ic,"' necessary in the handling of the. Infinitely fine fibers. Also, weather' conditions are all but ideal for S12 or 365 day opera tions, free from intense cold in winter and excessive heat in sum mer.; - ; V-V Mr. Gilbralth .spokej of the fact Read Thia First At Monksllver, a country place outside London.
